What! Now the time to engage in

production Just 50. The result of ex
i. perience shows that the time to 90 INTO
the production of any Of thu great staples
of human food is when prices are low
and there is scramble To get out of the
business. Beef is the great staple, and
as such will always be in demand. If
prices are low. shortsghted producers
will go out of business, while the long.
headed stock raiser will carefully pay at
tention to the increase of his herds and
prepare for the rise in prices which les.
sened production will inevitably bring
about.
Certain conditions are now operating
in the United States whic,, make it pos
siDle to see better times for the beef
business in the near future. A hard
winter has decimated the cattle OH the
northern ranges, with millions of acres in
Colorado, Nebraska and Texas, lately
given up to beef production, have been
entered by homesteaders, who even in
those arid regions will try the doubtful
experiment of grain growing instead of
stock raising. The most destructive
drouth in quarter of a century through
100000 square mile of the corn belt has
shortened up the corn crop and forced
upon the market large numbers of stock
of Indifferent quality, which, while at
present "bearing" the market. viii! be
out of the way before another year.
These and NUMBER of other unfavora-
ble circumstances-which, however tenn.
porary they may be, have their influence
are operating to cause future scarcity
in beef cattle, and the far-sighted inves-
tor will set in them reasons for taking
hold and increasing his herds while
prices are so low as to enable him to get
in on the ground floor-Farmer.

An active correspondence is g'ing On
lust now between Surveyor General
Greene and Commissioner Sparks, of the
general land office, in relation to certain
contracts for surveying public lands in
Montana, Ii may he rcmrul cred that
early last winter tie commissioner
directed that the sum of sl5 600 from the
total appropriation Of 30,OG0, that Was
devoted to public land surveys be eX'
pended in the survey of thinner lands
in Missoala county, in dispute between
the Northern Pacific and the govern
ment The maximum price t" he paid
for running the Inns was 50 small as
relating to timbur2d and rou-l i;tnds,
that no surveyor world take the WORK.
The $4,000 thus remained unexpended
until late in May tthe 23rtl) when Sparks
directed that it be applied to the survey
of agricultural lands, at prices not to ex-
coed the prescribed maximum. The
new rules require that agricultural lands
to be surveyed mGst be settled, Gen.
Greene made haste TO correspond with
surveyors, obtain evidcnc, s of districts
from remote agricultural settlements and
to let contracts rs soon as possible. Ton
tracts for cXpending about hal the s'l5,-
600 were formerly entered into between
Gen. Greene and various surveyors in
the latter days of June AMI the btan"e
during the first days ofJnly. But as Il
matter Of fact contracts f,r the enti e
amount were made in June, except that
| bonds were not entered into and the
formal contracts signed in all instances
during the month. A
Now it is part of the law that any
appropriations remaining unexpenled at
the end of the fiscal year for witch they
were made shall be recovered back into
the treasury. The fiscal year ends JuLe
Both. 1t is also a provision of the
statutes that no contracts for surveying
public lands are binding until approved
by the commissioner of the general land
Office. Commissioner Sparks approved
| in July certain contracts entered into in
June, but other contracts not signed bv
the surveyors until the first days ofJuly

believe that the money which was tc

The Interstate Act

The Interstate Commerce Act has now
been in force five months, and its effects
have certainly been less disastrous than
railroad managers expected or assured
the country they would be. 1t is true
that this is in part because the act has
never.been enforced accordingly to the in.
tent and spirit of its trainers. Probably
it never can Ie, though tiresome litiga-
tion must drag on in the courts for years
before either the commission or the peo.
pie can ascertain what the act requires.
But it is also the fact that the railroads
have contrived to adjust their business
to the new conditions much more satis-
factorily than their managers led the
public to suppose they could. Some
advance in charges has been made, and
yet through rates are remarkably low.
Some branches of trade and some manu-
featuring establishments have been. an
noyed, but in so many cases practical
remedy has been discovered that the re-
sulting disturbance has been compare
lively small.

"All things come to those who wait"
is proverb which will have another
veriication, il current statements are

cumuldtions of the stocks. which he

Northern Pacific with cJntumely and

as to do him an honor. Now the Ger
man fnanciers, who have backed him
from the beginning, placed at lis dispos-
al millions, and he enters on the scene
again with some of his old dash and
nerve. Granting that he carries out the
programme successfully there will be

assumption Of power there will be a
